Please resort to lifestyle modification with low carb, moderate protein, low fat diet alongwith regular exercise including brisk walking /jogging at least thrice weekly. Although the drugs you are on are good for controlling your lipids, it will not cure the other components of your metabolic syndrome. Your lipids are in borderline levels and should be fine with lifestyle modification.
